ARPLEY TIP is a ticking pollution time bomb. 3C Waste and their parent company WRG repeatedly fail to disappoint those who oppose the extension to the landfill. Firstly they put in an application to tip on floodplain just as the worst flooding to hit parts of Britain takes place.

At the same time they seem unable to put out the underground fire on the current tip site. Now to top it all off the Environment Agency have put them on a final warning over leachate levels which are so high they threaten the water quality of the adjacent River Mersey and other water bodies including the Nature Reserve at Moore. Keep up the good work 3C Waste you're doing our job for us.
